No-one likes general adverts, and ours hadn't been updated for ages, so we're having a clear-out and a change round to make the new ones useful to you. These new adverts bring in a small amount to help pay for the board and keep it free for you to use, so please do use them whenever you can, Let our links help you find great books on glass or a new piece for your collection. Thank you for supporting the Board.

Reminds me of these that I have seen around on a couple of occasions, the ones in the link are attributed to Riihimaki, which I think is an incorrect attribution, although Scandinavia may be a good starting point....I'm sure i've seen some others for sale online a year or so ago, although can't remember where at present.

Greg: that link is good. The only difference is that the texture does not go the full height as per these examples, and the amber colour of mine is not as bright, but otherwise the similarity is very close. Can't tell whether these are clear-cased, but the large one is definitely cased.

Ivo: As always, your comments are welcome! I've googled the name but not with much success. A further trawl on GMB and the name Fåglavik does figure with a few attributions to similar pieces. Additionally an earlier post by 'flying free' also shows this link. The photo third down, third from the left shows some similarly-made vases.

I did try and find more about Schott, but there was nothing conclusive on this particular type of glass. The vases shown on the Fåglavik site do look very close though. Do you have any links that shows the glass of Schott that might come close to matching this one?

The reason I was reminded of Schott was that his vases are often square, and his designs usually keep the top bit clear of patterns, like yours. However, the ones I come across of him usually look a bit more elaborate, so I can't link to anything really similar. So yours might very well be another company letting itself be inspired by the general style of the Schott designs. Sorry I can't help more...
